Today is Shabbat and we are enjoying a quiet day of doing things on our own – spending time with family and friends, walking around the neighborhoods and enjoying the lovely weather.
Last night at our Oneg Shabbat, Ellie Silver shared a poem she wrote about CAARI and wanted to share it with all of you! Think you will enjoy!
Thank you Ellie!
Shabbat Shalom to ALL!
